Strictly limited to 6 bottles per customer This is always the wine Alex is most proud of in his cellar, which is telling praise. It was also one of our standouts in 2023. This is because it offers the complexity and depth on par with some other producers’ Premiers Crus. It represents the lion’s share of his cellar, and is drawn from many sites across the village, half of which are tucked up in the pocket of vineyards that hug the Premiers Crus. The other half comes from the village’s border with Puligny-Montrachet. The texture of these wines is exceptional, nowhere better displayed than in this Chassagne-Montrachet. They have tension and drive, without the phenolic extraction of some more worked wines. Effortlessly pure and persistent.
This wine is now sold out. Please get in touch with your advisor or one of our team on [email protected] or 01473 313 300 for more information or guidance on an alternative.
The 2023 Chassagne-Montrachet Village remains the largest of Alex Moreau's cuvées at 50% of total production, despite losing some land through the ending of fermage agreements It has a fresh bouquet with orange blossom and pithy pear scents, a little peachiness coming through with time. The palate is well balanced and harmonious with orange pith and light nectarine notes and quite a graceful finish.
Pale lemon, a steely white fruit on the nose though quite discreet. Some riper notes on the back of the palate but still this is mainly about a crystalline energy, more backward less flowing than usual but it is all there, with a useful tension to finish. Drink from 2027-2031. Tasted Nov 2024.
